traditionally anti-social behavior meant fighting, keying cars, spraying graffitis etc. A kid with antisocial personality disorder can be a danger to other kids due to their reckless behavior.

social alienation caused by the internet and the social media usually manifests in asocial behavior like withdrawing from the society. in the recent years people have started calling this anti-social behavior, and they often get corrected by pedantic people such as myself.

what BBC meant by "anti-social" in this article is unclear.

Still waiting for the day when I can get rid of my work laptop and replace it with a phone entirely. Technically it's already possible, but it's just not practical until I can easily run docker containers on my phone. Also the samsung desktop mode is a bit underwhelming right now.

If this is not the default in the next decade I'm gonna riot. Hotels could replace the TV with a big computer screen and the corner chair with an office chair. Even a cheap hotel room could be an office without anyone having to bring their own toys with them. Just the phone in your pocket.

does more humane mean more taxes?

You need to download the lidl+ app. great value

i'm gonna do it anyway

I hate yaml and python because they have no brackets. When I copy/paste stuff from the internet there's always some issue with indentation and that's a non-issue for normal languages because I can just automatically prettify them but with yaml and python I need to do it manually.

Not that it matters but I just noticed certain titles on their website can be edited. For example the text "Use our /e/OS Installer" can be modified and I noticed it because I accidentally pasted my clipboard there. I suppose contenteditable should be set to "false".

fuck me i'm doing work even though i should be working right now

Postgres is amazing and ORM is your friend. Migrations alone is a good reason why using ORMs is a good idea.

I think there should be some kind of a tax or a fine for anyone who comes up or even suggests a new acronym. Regardless of the field. While I do agree with the article on some level, I still think even a randomly picked word from the dictionary is better than YAA (Yet Another Acronym).

Most ps1 games only supports the d-pad. If you have a dualshock controller but want to move your dude with the analog stick instead of the d-pad, you activate the analog mode.

My biggest issue with LLMs right now is that they're such spineless yes men. Even when you ask their opinion on if something is doable or should it be done in the first place, more often than not they just go "Absolutely!" and shit out a broken answer or an anti-pattern just to please you. Not always, but way too often. You need to frame your questions way too carefully to prevent this.

Maybe some of those character.ai models are sassy enough to have stronger opinions on code?

both if and may in a single title. that's so cool

with an old mistake of a language

Maybe add a search/filter to the results. I had to browse through 4 whole pages to make sure your post is actually there!

Cool, found this gem with it.

How would I be here if I didn't?

HTML was a mistake. I think banning XML would make the world a better place.

they're just competing with the urban dictionary for relevance and rizz

The word for copper is a native uralic word and thus it's hypothesized that the uralic speakers unlocked the bronze age independently.

It's much easier to us the command line on unix-likes than on windows, but it's not really a necessity. I know linux users who say they never use the terminal because they don't want to, and they're doing just fine.

Have you guys even used linux in the recent years? Sure it's a bit janky sometimes but so is windows and only getting worse. You can get quite far with linux by using graphical package management apps only, and now with steam you can even install games as easily as on windows.

Linux is way easier and more intuitive to use even for a novice than windows. I don't get why people think windows is somehow easy to use.

Why not? Everyone's using it on their steamdeck with no problems. Outdated attitude. If you're not technically competent you shouldn't use windows because it's harder to use than linux or mac.

Well, all I can say that if I was a major shareholder of Volkswagen I'd be 100% in support of UBI and made sure everyone can afford a new car, not just a used one.

Taxing the workers and giving the money to the 'poor' is an indirect subsidy to the dragons. Dragons are rich and cunning enough to afford to 'plan' their taxes, so it's not like they need to contribute to the UBI. They just reap the benefits.

I thought the whole point was to give it as cringy name as possible to discourage people from using AI and instead learn to program properly. It was called prompt engineering before but I suppose it didn't sound discouraging enough.

there's a chinese version of every popular website you know. sometimes multiple

why can't we boycott china instead they have higher tariffs and support russia even more than usa

Maybe we need internet cafes where you bring your own laptop. Charge by the hour during work hours if these remote workers are such a menace.

Sometimes I feel like the economy never recovered from the 2008 financial crisis. I got gut punched into the adulthood by the financial crisis and at that time there was a lot of talk about the japanese lost decade. My first thought back then was "so this is going to be our lost decade huh". I'm good now but I can't say I had a lot of fun in my 20s.

Only took them 9 years to react.
